Epic junkyard visit

Actually an insurance auction lot. This is where totaled cars go to rest before being put on the chopping block. Coparts is a national company with sites all over the place, this is just one Los Angeles area lot.

I went to look at an old MB parts car that I was thinking about bidding on, good thing I put eyes on it first because I do not want it now. What I saw when I got there blew my mind a little. Any luxury or sports car you can imagine, some with really minor or no apparent damage. A lady in the office told me that some of them were flood cars from hurricane Sandy, they are shipping them all over the country because there are so many of them.

A few of what I saw, and no I do not know the story behind any of them. They would all be on coparts's website with description of damage, though.

Every type of bike, including a BMW R1200GS and a bunch of Ducs:



Bentleys up the wazoo plus all this:
